Are you a senior, struggling to get meals prepared because you are homebound, recovering from surgery or an illness?

If so, let us do the cooking.

Enjoy Cafe Fox meals delivered to your door. Our hot meal, home delivery program is available four days per week to those living closer to town, with frozen meals for Thursdays and weekends. Those living farther out of town may be eligible for the frozen meal program.

Meals are available to people age 60-plus for a suggested donation of $3 per meal.

Give us a call at 264-2167 for further information.

Donations are greatly appreciated.
